Abstract
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB), mainly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), constitutes a major health problem due to the large number of patients. Intermittent hypoxia caused by SDB induces alterations in metabolic function. Nevertheless, metabolites characteristic for SDB are largely unknown. In this study, we performed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-based targeted metabolome analysis using data from The Nagahama Study (n = 6373). SDB-related metabolites were defined based on their variable importance score in orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis and fold changes in normalized peak-intensity levels between moderate-severe SDB patients and participants without SDB. We identified 20 metabolites as SDB-related, and interestingly, these metabolites were frequently included in pathways related to fructose. Multivariate analysis revealed that moderate-severe SDB was a significant factor for increased plasma fructose levels (β = 0.210, P = 0.006, generalized linear model) even after the adjustment of confounding factors. We further investigated changes in plasma fructose levels after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment using samples from patients with OSA (n = 60) diagnosed by polysomnography at Kyoto University Hospital, and found that patients with marked hypoxemia exhibited prominent hyperfructosemia and their plasma fructose levels lowered after CPAP treatment. These data suggest that hyperfructosemia is the abnormality characteristic to SDB, which can be reduced by CPAP treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Masked hypertension, which is characterized by out-of-office hypertension but normal office blood pressure, is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, the factors that contribute to masked hypertension are unclear. We aimed to determine the involvement of sleep-related characteristics in masked hypertension. METHODS The study included 3844 normotensive (systolic/diastolic blood pressure < 140/90 mmHg) community residents with no antihypertensive drug use at baseline (mean age 54.3 years). Home morning and evening blood pressure, oxygen desaturation during sleep (pulse oximetry), and sleep efficiency (actigraphy) were measured for 1 week. The number of nocturnal urinations during this period was obtained using a sleep diary. RESULTS Masked hypertension (mean morning and evening blood pressure ≥135/85 mmHg) was detected in 11.7% of study participants, and 79.0% of the participants with masked hypertension had sleep hypertension (≥120/70 mmHg). Multinominal logistic regression analysis identified different factors involved in masked hypertension with and without sleep hypertension; factors for masked hypertension with sleep hypertension included the frequency of at least 3% oxygen desaturation (coefficient = 0.038, P = 0.001), nocturia (coefficient = 0.607, P < 0.001), and carotid intima-media thickness (coefficient = 3.592, P < 0.001). Only carotid intima-media thickness and measurement season were associated with masked hypertension without sleep hypertension. Low sleep efficiency was associated with isolated sleep hypertension but not masked hypertension. CONCLUSION Sleep-related factors associated with masked hypertension differed depending on the presence of sleep hypertension. Sleep-disordered breathing and nocturnal urination frequency may help identify individuals who need home blood pressure monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polygenic risk score (PRS) analysis is used to predict disease risk. Although PRS has been shown to have great potential in improving clinical care, PRS accuracy assessment has been mainly focused on European ancestry. This study aimed to develop an accurate genetic risk score for knee osteoarthritis (OA) using a multi-population PRS and leveraging a multi-trait PRS in the Japanese population. METHODS We calculated PRS using PRS-CS-auto, derived from genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics for knee OA in the Japanese population (same ancestry) and multi-population. We further identified risk factor traits for which PRS could predict knee OA and subsequently developed an integrated PRS based on multi-trait analysis of GWAS (MTAG), including genetically correlated risk traits. PRS performance was evaluated in participants of the Nagahama cohort study who underwent radiographic evaluation of the knees (n = 3,279). PRSs were incorporated into knee OA integrated risk models along with clinical risk factors. RESULTS A total of 2,852 genotyped individuals were included in the PRS analysis. The PRS based on Japanese knee OA GWAS was not associated with knee OA (p = 0.228). In contrast, PRS based on multi-population knee OA GWAS showed a significant association with knee OA (p = 6.7 × 10-5, odds ratio (OR) per standard deviation = 1.19), whereas PRS based on MTAG of multi-population knee OA, along with risk factor traits such as body mass index GWAS, displayed an even stronger association with knee OA (p = 5.4 × 10-7, OR = 1.24). Incorporating this PRS into traditional risk factors improved the predictive ability of knee OA (area under the curve, 74.4% to 74.7%; p = 0.029). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that multi-trait PRS based on MTAG, combined with traditional risk factors, and using large sample size multi-population GWAS, significantly improved predictive accuracy for knee OA in the Japanese population, even when the sample size of GWAS of the same ancestry was small. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to show a statistically significant association between the PRS and knee OA in a non-European population. TRIAL REGISTRATION No. C278.

Abstract
Cross-sectional relationships between nocturia and sleep problems have been well evaluated but the risk association for each incidence is scarcely reported. This analysis included 8076 participants of the Nagahama study in Japan (median age 57, 31.0% male) and associations between nocturia and self-reported, sleep-related problems (poor sleep) were evaluated cross-sectionally. Causal effects on each new-onset case were analyzed longitudinally after 5 years. Three models were applied: univariable analysis, adjustment for basic variables (i.e., demographic and lifestyle variables) and full adjustment for basic and clinical variables. The overall prevalences of poor sleep and nocturia were 18.6% and 15.5%, while poor sleep was positively associated with nocturia (OR = 1.85, p < 0.001) and vice versa (OR = 1.90, p < 0.001). Among 6579 good sleep participants, 18.5% developed poor sleep. Baseline nocturia was positively associated with this incident poor sleep (OR = 1.49, p < 0.001, full adjustment). Among 6824 non-nocturia participants, the nocturia incidence was 11.3%. Baseline poor sleep was positively associated with this incident nocturia (OR = 1.26, p = 0.026); such associations were significant only in women (OR = 1.44, p = 0.004) and under-50-year-old groups (OR = 2.82, p < 0.001), after full adjustment. Nocturia and poor sleep associate with each other. Baseline nocturia can induce new-onset poor sleep while baseline poor sleep may induce new-onset nocturia only in women.

Abstract
AIM Identifying plasma molecules associated with skeletal muscle properties can elucidate the pathophysiology of sarcopenia. Because adipocytokines are a promising candidate marker, the current study aimed to clarify the possible associations between adiponectin and leptin levels and mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area and mean attenuation value, which are indices of muscle mass and fat deposition in muscle, respectively. METHODS The current study included 1440 older Japanese adults (mean age 69.3 years). Mid-thigh skeletal muscle cross-sectional area and mean attenuation value were evaluated through computed tomography scan. A low attenuation value showed a greater fat deposition in muscle. Circulating adiponectin and leptin levels were assessed using blood specimens collected during the baseline investigation. RESULTS Plasma leptin level was inversely correlated with muscle cross-sectional area, but not with attenuation value. The association with cross-sectional area was independent of possible confounding factors including body size (Q1: reference; Q2: β = -0.032, P = 0.033; Q3: β = -0.064, P < 0.001; Q4: β = -0.111, P < 0.001). In contrast, adiponectin level was independently and inversely associated with attenuation value (Q1: reference; Q2: β = -0.044, P = 0.122; Q3: β = -0.080, P = 0.006; Q4: β = -0.159, P < 0.001), but not with cross-sectional area. These associations between adipocytokine levels and muscle properties were independent of abdominal fat area and insulin resistance. CONCLUSIONS There were adiposity- and insulin resistance-independent associations between adipocytokines levels and skeletal muscle mass and fat deposition in muscle, suggesting an involvement of adipocytokines in muscle properties.

Abstract
Perivascular space (PVS) burden is an emerging, poorly understood, magnetic resonance imaging marker of cerebral small vessel disease, a leading cause of stroke and dementia. Genome-wide association studies in up to 40,095 participants (18 population-based cohorts, 66.3 ± 8.6 yr, 96.9% European ancestry) revealed 24 genome-wide significant PVS risk loci, mainly in the white matter. These were associated with white matter PVS already in young adults (N = 1,748; 22.1 ± 2.3 yr) and were enriched in early-onset leukodystrophy genes and genes expressed in fetal brain endothelial cells, suggesting early-life mechanisms. In total, 53% of white matter PVS risk loci showed nominally significant associations (27% after multiple-testing correction) in a Japanese population-based cohort (N = 2,862; 68.3 ± 5.3 yr). Mendelian randomization supported causal associations of high blood pressure with basal ganglia and hippocampal PVS, and of basal ganglia PVS and hippocampal PVS with stroke, accounting for blood pressure. Our findings provide insight into the biology of PVS and cerebral small vessel disease, pointing to pathways involving extracellular matrix, membrane transport and developmental processes, and the potential for genetically informed prioritization of drug targets.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes. To characterise the genetic contribution to these processes across ancestry groups, we aggregate genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from 2,535,601 individuals (39.7% non-European ancestry), including 428,452 T2D cases. We identify 1,289 independent association signals at genome-wide significance (P<5×10-8) that map to 611 loci, of which 145 loci are previously unreported. We define eight non-overlapping clusters of T2D signals characterised by distinct profiles of cardiometabolic trait associations. These clusters are differentially enriched for cell-type specific regions of open chromatin, including pancreatic islets, adipocytes, endothelial, and enteroendocrine cells. We build cluster-specific partitioned genetic risk scores (GRS) in an additional 137,559 individuals of diverse ancestry, including 10,159 T2D cases, and test their association with T2D-related vascular outcomes. Cluster-specific partitioned GRS are more strongly associated with coronary artery disease and end-stage diabetic nephropathy than an overall T2D GRS across ancestry groups, highlighting the importance of obesity-related processes in the development of vascular outcomes. Our findings demonstrate the value of integrating multi-ancestry GWAS with single-cell epigenomics to disentangle the aetiological heterogeneity driving the development and progression of T2D, which may offer a route to optimise global access to genetically-informed diabetes care.

Resistin G-A haplotype at SNP-420/-358 is associated with the latent sarcopenic obesity index in the toon genome study. J Diabetes Investig 2023; 14:686-694. [PMID: 36897532 PMCID: PMC10119914 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM/INTRODUCTION Resistin, which induces insulin resistance, is mainly expressed in monocytes/macrophages in humans. We reported previously that serum resistin was highest in the G-A haplotype defined by resistin single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at -420 (rs1862513) and - 358 (rs3219175). As sarcopenic obesity is associated with insulin resistance, we aimed to examine whether serum resistin and its haplotypes were associated with sarcopenic obesity at a latent stage. MATERIALS AND METHODS We cross-sectionally analyzed 567 community-dwelling Japanese participants attending annual medical check-ups in which the sarcopenic obesity index was evaluated. The age- and gender-matched normal glucose tolerance subjects with G-A homozygotes and those with C-G homozygotes were examined via RNA-sequencing and pathway analysis (each n = 3), and RT-PCR (each n = 8). RESULTS In multivariate logistic regression analyses, the fourth quartile (Q4) of serum resistin and G-A homozygotes were both associated with the latent sarcopenic obesity index defined by a visceral fat area of ≥ 100 cm2 and grip strength Q1 after adjustment for age and gender, with or without other confounding factors. RNA sequencing and pathway analysis showed that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) was involved in the top five pathways in the whole blood cells of G-A homozygotes compared with C-G homozygotes. RT-PCR revealed that TNF mRNA was higher in G-A homozygotes than in C-G homozygotes. CONCLUSIONS The G-A haplotype was associated with the latent sarcopenic obesity index defined by grip strength in the Japanese cohort, could be mediated by TNF-α.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Phase angle (PhA) calculated from the resistance and reactance measured using a bioimpedance device was suggested to represent the degree of fat deposition in muscle (myosteatosis), though no direct evidence is available. We aimed to clarify the possible association between PhA and skeletal muscle myosteatosis in community-dwelling middle-aged to older adults. METHODS Participants consisted of 424 Japanese (aged ≥50 years). Leg PhA and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) were obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis. The mean attenuation values and cross-sectional area of the mid-thigh skeletal muscle were calculated from computed tomography images and considered as indexes of myosteatosis and skeletal muscle mass, respectively. RESULTS Leg PhA was positively associated with SMI, and cross-sectional area and mean attenuation value at mid-thigh. Multiple regression analysis adjusted for possible covariates identified leg PhA (β = 0.214) and SMI (β = 0.260) as independent factors of mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area (P < 0.001), while leg PhA (β = 0.349, P < 0.001) but not SMI (P = 0.645) was associated with mean attenuation value. Similar results were observed in the analysis in the older (≥65 years) subpopulation. The combination of low SMI and low leg PhA showed stepwise association with cross-sectional area, while only individuals with low leg PhA had lower mean attenuated value. CONCLUSIONS Leg PhA was independently associated with mean attenuated value of the mid-thigh skeletal muscle, suggesting that the assessment of PhA in combination with SMI could provide additional information for the evaluation of muscle properties.

Trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine response and immunogenicity assessment after one week and three months in repeatedly vaccinated adults. Expert Rev Vaccines 2023; 22:826-838.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The influenza vaccine administrated every year is a recommended infection control procedure for individuals above the age of six months. However, the effectiveness of repeated annual vaccination is still an active research topic. Therefore, we investigated the vaccine immunogenicity in two independent groups: previously vaccinated versus non-vaccinated individuals at three time points; prior vaccination, one week and three months post vaccination. The assessment enabled us to evaluate the elicited immune responses and the durability of the induced protection in both groups. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A research study was conducted to assess the immunogenicity of a single dose of Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, and B) in 278 healthy adults aged between 32 and 66 years. Almost half of the participants, 140 (50·36%), received influenza vaccination at least once precursor to past influenza seasons. One blood sample was taken prior to vaccination for complete blood analysis and baseline immunogenicity assessment. The selected study participants received a single vaccine dose on the first day, and then followed up for three months. Two blood samples were taken after one week and three months post vaccination, respectively, for vaccine immunogenicity assessment. RESULTS Before vaccination, the seroprotection, defined as a hemagglutination-inhibiting titer of =>1:40, was detected for the three vaccine virus strains in 20 previously vaccinated participants (14·29%) [8·95%, 21·2%]. We compared the overall vaccine response for the three virus strains using a normalized response score calculated from linearly transformed titer measurements; the score before vaccination was 84% higher in the previously vaccinated group and the mean difference between the two groups was statistically significant. Three months post-vaccination, we didn't find a significant difference in vaccine responses; the number of fully seroprotected individuals became 48 (34·29%) [26·48%, 42·77%] in the previously vaccinated group and 59 (42·75%) [34·37%, 51·45%] in the non-vaccinated group. The calculated response score was almost equal in both groups and the mean difference was no longer statistically significant. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that a single dose of influenza vaccine is equally protective after three months for annually vaccinated adults and first-time vaccine receivers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variants within nearly 1000 loci are known to contribute to modulation of blood lipid levels. However, the biological pathways underlying these associations are frequently unknown, limiting understanding of these findings and hindering downstream translational efforts such as drug target discovery. RESULTS To expand our understanding of the underlying biological pathways and mechanisms controlling blood lipid levels, we leverage a large multi-ancestry meta-analysis (N = 1,654,960) of blood lipids to prioritize putative causal genes for 2286 lipid associations using six gene prediction approaches. Using phenome-wide association (PheWAS) scans, we identify relationships of genetically predicted lipid levels to other diseases and conditions. We confirm known pleiotropic associations with cardiovascular phenotypes and determine novel associations, notably with cholelithiasis risk. We perform sex-stratified GWAS meta-analysis of lipid levels and show that 3-5% of autosomal lipid-associated loci demonstrate sex-biased effects. Finally, we report 21 novel lipid loci identified on the X chromosome. Many of the sex-biased autosomal and X chromosome lipid loci show pleiotropic associations with sex hormones, emphasizing the role of hormone regulation in lipid metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our findings provide insights into the biological mechanisms through which associated variants lead to altered lipid levels and potentially cardiovascular disease risk.

Abstract
Recently an association between blood glucose dysregulation and sleep disruption was suggested. The association between sleep disordered breathing, most of which is due to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the general population, and diabetic severity, as well as the impact of antidiabetic treatment, remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate these associations as well as age and sex differences. This cross-sectional study evaluated 7,680 community participants as the main cohort (population-based cohort). OSA was assessed by the 3% oxygen desaturation index from pulse oximetry, which was corrected for sleep duration obtained by wrist actigraphy. For arguing the limitations for using pulse oximetry, 597 hospitalised patients, who were assessed by the apnea-hypopnea index from attended polysomnography, were also evaluated as the validation cohort (hospital-based cohort). Moderate-to-severe OSA was more prevalent as haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels increased (<5.6%/5.6%-<6.5%/6.5%-<7.5%/≥7.5%, respectively) in both cohorts (p < 0.001), but only in those without antidiabetic treatment. The HbA1c level was an independent factor for moderate-to-severe OSA (population-based cohort, odds ratio [OR] 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-1.45; hospital-based cohort, OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.22-2.33, per 1% increase). These associations were more prominent in the middle-aged (aged <60 years) than in the elderly (aged ≥60 years) and in women than in men in both cohorts. The prevalence of moderate-to-severe OSA in patients with antidiabetic treatment in the hospital-based cohort was ≥75% regardless of HbA1c levels. In conclusion, an association between the prevalence of OSA and HbA1c level even within or over the normal range was found only in patients without antidiabetic treatment and was more prominent in the middle-aged and in women.

Abstract
Subjects with subclinical respiratory dysfunction who do not meet the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) criteria have attracted attention with regard to early COPD intervention. Our aim was to longitudinally investigate the risks for the development of airflow limitation (AFL) and dyspnoea, the main characteristics of COPD, in a large-scale community-based general population study. The Nagahama study included 9789 inhabitants, and a follow-up evaluation was conducted after 5 years. AFL was diagnosed using a fixed ratio (forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) < 0.7). We enrolled normal subjects aged 40-75 years with no AFL, dyspnoea or prior diagnosis of asthma or COPD at baseline. In total, 5865 subjects were analysed, 310 subjects had subclinical respiratory dysfunction (FEV1/FVC < the lower limit of normal; n = 57, and FEV1 < 80% of the predicted value (preserved ratio impaired spirometry); n = 256). A total of 5086 subjects attended the follow-up assessment, and 449 and 1021 subjects developed AFL and dyspnoea, respectively. Of these, 100 subjects developed AFL with dyspnoea. Baseline subclinical respiratory dysfunction was independently and significantly associated with AFL with dyspnoea development within 5 years. Subjects with subclinical respiratory dysfunction are at risk of developing COPD-like features and require careful monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to determine if skeletal muscle mass is a predictor of all-cause mortality and if muscle mass plays a role in the association between body mass index (BMI) and all-cause mortality in community residents. METHODS The study population consists of 3582 elderly (age ≥65 years) adults. The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) was measured between 2013 and 2016. Men with SMI <7.0 kg/m2 and women with SMI <5.7 kg/m2 were considered to have low SMI. All-cause mortality was determined by reviewing residential registry records (follow-up duration: 2564 ± 373 days). RESULTS The mortality rate of the low SMI group was significantly higher than that of the normal SMI group in men (191.3 vs. 93.0 per 10 000 person-years, P < 0.001), but not in women (P = 0.191). In Cox proportional hazard analysis adjusted for possible covariates, the group differences remained significant (hazard ratio = 1.82, P = 0.011). The results were similar when individuals who died within 1 year of follow-up were excluded from the analysis (P = 0.015). Cubic splines revealed that SMI <6.9 kg/m2 is a risk factor of all-cause mortality in men. BMI was found to be significantly associated with all-cause mortality in men (P = 0.010), but not in women (P = 0.288); however, the association disappeared after adjustment for SMI (P = 0.163). CONCLUSION SMI <6.9 kg/m2 is a risk factor of all-cause mortality in men but not in women. SMI underlies the relationship between BMI and all-cause mortality.

A saturated map of common genetic variants associated with human height. Nature 2022; 610:704-712.

Abstract
Common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are predicted to collectively explain 40-50% of phenotypic variation in human height, but identifying the specific variants and associated regions requires huge sample sizes1. Here, using data from a genome-wide association study of 5.4 million individuals of diverse ancestries, we show that 12,111 independent SNPs that are significantly associated with height account for nearly all of the common SNP-based heritability. These SNPs are clustered within 7,209 non-overlapping genomic segments with a mean size of around 90 kb, covering about 21% of the genome. The density of independent associations varies across the genome and the regions of increased density are enriched for biologically relevant genes. In out-of-sample estimation and prediction, the 12,111 SNPs (or all SNPs in the HapMap 3 panel2) account for 40% (45%) of phenotypic variance in populations of European ancestry but only around 10-20% (14-24%) in populations of other ancestries. Effect sizes, associated regions and gene prioritization are similar across ancestries, indicating that reduced prediction accuracy is likely to be explained by linkage disequilibrium and differences in allele frequency within associated regions. Finally, we show that the relevant biological pathways are detectable with smaller sample sizes than are needed to implicate causal genes and variants. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive map of specific genomic regions that contain the vast majority of common height-associated variants. Although this map is saturated for populations of European ancestry, further research is needed to achieve equivalent saturation in other ancestries.

Abstract
A major challenge of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) is to translate phenotypic associations into biological insights. Here, we integrate a large GWAS on blood lipids involving 1.6 million individuals from five ancestries with a wide array of functional genomic datasets to discover regulatory mechanisms underlying lipid associations. We first prioritize lipid-associated genes with expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) colocalizations and then add chromatin interaction data to narrow the search for functional genes. Polygenic enrichment analysis across 697 annotations from a host of tissues and cell types confirms the central role of the liver in lipid levels and highlights the selective enrichment of adipose-specific chromatin marks in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides. Overlapping transcription factor (TF) binding sites with lipid-associated loci identifies TFs relevant in lipid biology. In addition, we present an integrative framework to prioritize causal variants at GWAS loci, producing a comprehensive list of candidate causal genes and variants with multiple layers of functional evidence. We highlight two of the prioritized genes, CREBRF and RRBP1, which show convergent evidence across functional datasets supporting their roles in lipid biology.

Abstract
AIMS The potential effect of alcohol consumption on coronary heart disease (CHD) remains unclear. We used the variant rs671 in the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 gene (ALDH2) as an instrument to investigate the causal role of alcohol intake in subclinical and clinical CHD. METHODS We conducted two Mendelian randomization studies: a cross-sectional study of coronary artery calcification (CAC) on computed tomography of 1029 healthy men (mean age, 63.8 years) and a case-control study of 421 men with CHD (acute coronary syndrome [ACS] or stable angina pectoris) who underwent coronary revascularization and 842 age-matched male controls. RESULTS In the CAC study, medians (25%tiles, 75%tiles) of alcohol consumption by ALDH2-rs671 *2 homozygotes (n = 86 [8.4%]), *1*2 heterozygotes (n = 397 [38.5%]), and *1 homozygotes (n = 546 [53.1%]) were 0.0 (0.0, 0.0), 28.0 (0.0, 129.0), and 224.0 (84.0, 350.0) g/week, respectively. In age-adjusted Poisson regression with robust error variance, compared with *2 homozygotes, relative risks for prevalent CAC score >0, ≥100, and ≥300 in *1 homozygotes were 1.29 (95% confidence interval, 1.06-1.57), 1.76 (1.05-2.96), and 1.81 (0.80-4.09), respectively. In age-adjusted ordinal logistic regression for CAC distributions, we observed higher odds among *1 homozygotes (odds ratio, 2.19 [1.39-3.46]) and even among *1*2 heterozygotes (1.77 [1.11-2.82]) compared with *2 homozygotes. In the case-control study, conditional logistic regression revealed lower prevalence of *1 homozygotes among men with CHD (odds ratio, 0.54 [0.35-0.82]), especially ACS (0.46 [0.27-0.77]), than controls. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate a positive association of alcohol consumption with CAC burden but an inverse association with clinical CHD, especially ACS.

Poor glycemic control rather than types of diabetes is a risk factor for sarcopenia in diabetes mellitus: The MUSCLES-DM study. J Diabetes Investig 2022; 13:1881-1888. [PMID: 35796583 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2022] [Revised: 06/21/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION poor glycemic control and insulin treatment are reported to be associated with sarcopenia in type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes may be a stronger risk for sarcopenia. We therefore studied the effect of the type of diabetes, glycemic control, and insulin therapy on the prevalence and characteristics of sarcopenia. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 812 Japanese patients with diabetes (type 1: n=57; type 2: n=755) were enrolled in this study. Sarcopenia was defined as low handgrip strength or slow gait speed and low appendicular skeletal muscle mass. RESULTS Among participants aged ≥65 years, the sarcopenia prevalence rate was higher among patients with type 1 diabetes (20.0%) than among those with type 2 diabetes (8.1%). The prevalence rate of low handgrip strength was higher in type 1 diabetes (50.0%) than in type 2 diabetes (28.7%). In logistic regression analysis, type 1 diabetes was significantly associated with the prevalence of low handgrip strength. In logistic regression analysis, medication with insulin was significantly associated with the prevalence of sarcopenia; this association was not retained after adjusting for HbA1c. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of sarcopenia in older adult patients was higher in those with type 1 diabetes than in those with type 2 diabetes. Among the components of sarcopenia, the difference was most prominent in the frequency of low handgrip strength. Poor glycemic control rather than type of diabetes or insulin treatment was revealed to be a primary risk factor for sarcopenia in diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The concept of locomotive syndrome was proposed to highlight older adults who require nursing care services due to the malfunctioning of their locomotive organs. With the coming of a super-aging society, there is a growing need to understand relation between systemic chronic diseases and locomotive syndrome. METHODS We analyzed the second-visit dataset of the Nagahama Study. The association analysis was performed to identify the chronic diseases that were risk factors associated with the occurrence and the progression of locomotive syndrome in both the cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. RESULTS Hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic renal failure, osteoporosis, anemia, and gastroesophageal reflux disease were independently correlated with locomotive syndrome through the deterioration of body pain, social activity, and cognitive function in the cross-sectional study. Multiple chronic diseases had additive effects and significantly increased the risk of locomotive syndrome. In the longitudinal study, osteoporosis and kidney disease were significantly correlated with the worsening of the total GLFS-25 score. CONCLUSIONS Locomotive syndrome coexisted with various systemic chronic diseases, especially cardiovascular diseases. Osteoporosis and kidney disease were significantly correlated with the progression of locomotive dysfunction. The management of various chronic diseases may be useful to prevent locomotive syndrome and vice versa.

Multi-ancestry genetic study of type 2 diabetes highlights the power of diverse populations for discovery and translation. Nat Genet 2022; 54:560-572. [PMID: 35551307 PMCID: PMC9179018 DOI: 10.1038/s41588-022-01058-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 207] [Impact Index Per Article: 103.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
We assembled an ancestrally diverse collection of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in 180,834 affected individuals and 1,159,055 controls (48.9% non-European descent) through the Diabetes Meta-Analysis of Trans-Ethnic association studies (DIAMANTE) Consortium. Multi-ancestry GWAS meta-analysis identified 237 loci attaining stringent genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10-9), which were delineated to 338 distinct association signals. Fine-mapping of these signals was enhanced by the increased sample size and expanded population diversity of the multi-ancestry meta-analysis, which localized 54.4% of T2D associations to a single variant with >50% posterior probability. This improved fine-mapping enabled systematic assessment of candidate causal genes and molecular mechanisms through which T2D associations are mediated, laying the foundations for functional investigations. Multi-ancestry genetic risk scores enhanced transferability of T2D prediction across diverse populations. Our study provides a step toward more effective clinical translation of T2D GWAS to improve global health for all, irrespective of genetic background.

Development and validation of prediction model for incident overactive bladder: The Nagahama study. Int J Urol 2022; 29:748-756. [PMID: 35393696 PMCID: PMC9546153 DOI: 10.1111/iju.14887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
Objectives We aimed to develop models to predict new‐onset overactive bladder in 5 years using a large prospective cohort of the general population. Methods This is a secondary analysis of a longitudinal cohort study in Japan. The baseline characteristics were measured between 2008 and 2010, with follow‐ups every 5 years. We included subjects without overactive bladder at baseline and with follow‐up data 5 years later. Overactive bladder was assessed using the overactive bladder symptom score. Baseline characteristics (demographics, health behaviors, comorbidities, and overactive bladder symptom scores) and blood test data were included as predictors. We developed two competing prediction models for each sex based on logistic regression with penalized likelihood (LASSO). We chose the best model separately for men and women after evaluating models' performance in terms of discrimination and calibration using an internal validation via 200 bootstrap resamples and a temporal validation. Results We analyzed 7218 participants (male: 2238, female: 4980). The median age was 60 and 55 years, and the number of new‐onset overactive bladder was 223 (10.0%) and 288 (5.8%) per 5 years in males and females, respectively. The in‐sample estimates for C‐statistic, calibration intercept, and slope for the best performing models were 0.77 (95% confidence interval 0.74–0.80), 0.28 and 1.15 for males, and 0.77 (95% confidence interval 0.74–0.80), 0.20 and 1.08 for females. Internal and temporal validation gave broadly similar estimates of performance, indicating low optimism. Conclusion We developed risk prediction models for new‐onset overactive bladder among men and women with good predictive ability.

Morita Y, Ito H, Kawaguchi S, Nishitani K, Nakamura S, Kuriyama S, Sekine Y, Tabara Y, Matsuda F, Matsuda S. Physical and financial impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbate knee pain: A longitudinal study of a large-scale general population. Mod Rheumatol 2022; 33:373-380. [PMID: 35353896 PMCID: PMC8992315 DOI: 10.1093/mr/roac022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Revised: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the changes in knee pain, a dominant cause of physical disability, following the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, and to identify factors affecting the changes in knee pain. METHODS We analysed the pre- and post-COVID-19 longitudinal data set of the Nagahama Study. Knee pain was assessed using the Knee Society Score (KSS). The estimated KSS from the age and sex using regression model in the pre- and post-COVID-19 data set was compared. Factors including the activity score, educational level, and various impacts of COVID-19 were analysed for correlation analyses with changes in KSS. RESULTS Data collected from 6409 participants showed statistically significant differences in KSS, pre- (mean = 22.0; SD = 4.4) and post-COVID-19 (mean = 19.5; SD = 6.4). Low activity score (p = .008), low educational level (p < .001), and undesirable financial impact (p = .030) were independently associated with knee pain exacerbation. CONCLUSION The harmful effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on knee pain were suggested. People should be encouraged to engage in physical activities, such as walking, despite the state of emergency. Furthermore, social support for economically disadvantaged groups may improve healthcare access, preventing the acute exacerbations of knee pain.

Kato T, Ikezoe T, Tabara Y, Matsuda F, Tsuboyama T, Ichihashi N. Differences in lower limb muscle strength and balance ability between sarcopenia stages depend on sex in community-dwelling older adults. Aging Clin Exp Res 2022; 34:527-534. [PMID: 34417732 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-021-01952-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to compare motor function between sarcopenia stages with respect to sex in community-dwelling older adults. METHODS The participants, comprising 2107 community-dwelling older adults (738 men and 1369 women), were classified into 4 groups and the groups were operationally defined-normal, low muscle mass, low physical function, and sarcopenia groups. Lower limb muscle strength and balance ability were assessed for evaluating motor function. To compare motor function between sarcopenia stages, an analysis of covariance adjusted for age and body mass index was performed. RESULTS Lower limb muscle strengths were significantly lower not only in the sarcopenia group but also in the low muscle mass and low physical function groups than that in the normal group in both men and women. Low hip abductor muscle strength was observed in the low physical function group compared to the low muscle mass group in women, but not in men. Timed Up and Go test results in the sarcopenia and low function groups was lower than in the normal and low muscle mass groups for men and women. One-leg standing in the low physical function group was lower than that in the normal group, only for women. CONCLUSIONS Reduced motor function was observed not only in older people with sarcopenia but also in older people with only low muscle mass or low physical function, and the decline in lower limb muscle strength and balance ability in the low function group were greater in older women than in older men.
